Biography
About Kiara Kabukuru
With her statuesque frame, sharp cheekbones, and deep brown eyes, Kiara Kabukuru is the kind of model who stops traffic. She stands 5'9" with a slim build and natural curves, measurements 33–23–34. A Black American with roots in Kampala, Uganda, she has graced campaigns as a CoverGirl and walked for Victoria's Secret.
Her family moved to California when she was a child, fleeing political unrest in Uganda. At 16, a photographer spotted her in a Los Angeles shopping center, launching a career that has spanned over three decades. She was born on July 31, 1975, and her journey from immigrant to supermodel is a story of quiet determination. She adopted the name Kiara on the advice of her agent at Ford Models, and the rest is history.
